NCBG BCP June 2018

I worked more with the same colors we have been using.  I demonstrated how to soften areas using white and then color.  I demonstrated how to lighten an area or change the color using white and then color.  We discussed value and how important they are.  Remember for demonstration purposes I am working in a small area.  Typically I work all over the piece bringing it up to completion as a unit.

Working on a dark surface.  I almost always start with white (or sometimes cream).  I do a value study, a reverse of the value study you would do on white paper with a dark pencil.  Use the stik tak/poster putty along with your pencil and eraser to get the values you need.  Work lightly and build up in layers.
